Answer:

The specific latent heat of a substance is the amount of energy required to change the state of one kilo of the substance without change in it temperature.The latent heat of vaporization or evaporation is the heat given to some mass to convert if from the liquid to the vapor phase.

How do conservation tillage practices lead to agricultural sustainability?

Zielflug [23.3K]

Conservation tillage practices help reduce soil erosion and maintain soil nutrient levels.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The approach that helps in the reduction of doing tillage practices and also reducing its frequency. this is done for obtaining certain benefits for both environment and economic. This mainly focuses on providing sustainability by leaving some plants remaining in the soil.

It aims in decreasing the emission of gases of greenhouse effects like carbon dioxide. Using these practices helps in reducing the erosion and runoffs. This will promote health of the soil because the nutrients are not take off form the soil due to soil erosion and runoffs.

Ask Your Teacher In the air over a particular region at an altitude of 500 m above the ground, the electric field is 120 N/C dir

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

$1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3$

Explanation:

$\epsilon_0$ = Permittivity of free space = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

A = Area

h = Altitude = 600 m

Electric flux through the top would be

$-110A$ (negative as the electric field is going into the volume)

At the bottom

$120A$

Total flux through the volume

$\phi=120-110\\\Rightarrow \phi=10A$

Electric flux is given by

$\phi=\dfrac{q}{\epsilon_0}\\\Rightarrow q=\phi\epsilon_0\\\Rightarrow q=10A\epsilon_0$

Charge per volume is given by

$\rho=\dfrac{q}{v}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10A\epsilon_0}{Ah}\\\Rightarrow \rho=dfrac{10\epsilon_0}{h}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{600}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3$
